Basically all the info you need:
http://tokusatsunetwork.com/2017/03/...iler-released/ New ending is called DIE SET DOWN (pun on original Amazon's dai setsudan attack), same artist as season 1 The new lead is named Chihiro, he transforms into Kamen Rider Amazon Neo. Haruka's new form is called Kamen Rider Amazon New Omega. Season 1 was called the story of "the wild vs the cultured" season 2 is called "a story about boys and girls". Story: In the past, a massive spill occurred at the Amazon experimental lab. Most of the survivors were destroyed, hot-blooded young men enjoyed hunting Amazons and the experiment seemed to be drawing to an end. Far than ending, however, it was entering a completely new phase. The number of cases of ordinary people turning into Amazons without warning was rising. The government formed a new extermination unit to assassinate people who had turned into Amazons secretly and struggled to hide the truth. Chihiro/Kamen Rider Neo is a loner, a boy raised by Amazons who hates them but must suppress his cannibalistic urges. One day he meets Iyu, an Amazon girl who transforms into Crow Amazon and vanquishes Amazon enemies with her awesome fighting power. Chihiro is amazed at his first glance of Iyu, because she’s the first human he’s met without thinking, “I want to eat her.” She’s the first opponent he’s ever wanted to get close to, but Chihiro is unaware of her story. Iyu is a “Sigma,” a biological weapon brought back to life after her parents turned Amazon and killed her. |
So I'm guessing one of the big questions is what happened to Alpha in between this season and the last, since I've heard there a five year gap between seasons.

Got to wonder how the finishers work with this belt. I mean, the season 1 belt's are kind of a beautiful simplicity in this, just rev the handle and do a thing, but here?
Also, am I the only one who feels like inserting a collectible into a belt feels... out of place here? I dunno, maybe I'm just embracing the "edge" too much. |

Woah, this is not the direction I expected season 2 to go in at all! Looks great though, and I'm glad it looks like all the season 1 cast is back (including Alpha, for everyone worrying).
A new lead is interesting, as is the new belt with a collectible focused interface (the use of syringes is funny, since some people though Ex-Aid would use those before we knew about the gaming theme). Luckily it still looks bloody as ever despite that. Anyone able to translate the text underneath the picture of the new driver? I assume that's its name? |
Here's the YouTube video for anyone that has issues with playing the other links.

Those suits looks so awesome, and those belts are really cool designs.

Still, I really like it, never expected to see that kind of thing in Amazons, but it still looks like it fits. |
And now I noticed that the eye on Omega's belt is white and not red which is now going to bug the crap out of me.
Oh, and am I the only who noticed/theorizing that this season's theme could be reduced to Reproduction? You know, going with how season 1 was about eating to survive, this season will be about the other major aspect of life? |
Yes to all of this. First of all Amazons as a show was great, so I hope season 2 delivers a similar experience. New lead characters? I'm fine with that. Mostly because they look interesting and I think Haruka and Jin already had their spotlight. I mean Amazons wasn’t written as a multiple season show to begin with so they already told everything about these characters they wanted too. Also it's still set in the same universe and it looks like most characters from season 1 will appear too.
And those suits... damn. I mean New Omega is kinda meh, I didn't really care all that much for the base suit to begin with so a remodeled version isn't blowing me away, but it looks good enough. Amazon Neo is the real star though; holy shit that suit is gorgeous. I'm getting serious G-3 vibes here but it looks even better. I love the red stripes over the blue flesh parts, the metal parts with the black sections and those orange eyes- yes, soooooo good. New driver is great looking too. All in all I'm hyped for this, bring it on! |
Oh, and I'm digging what I'm seeing of the new Amazons, as I always kind of saw most of those designs not really fitting the show. I dunno, most of them just seemed too... standard Rider-ish for me to take seriously as man-eating beasts, ya know?
Seriously, the Strix suit is just kind of goofy looking. |
I am ridiculously pumped for more of a great show, and damn those new suits look slick. Gimmie some more Figuarts please!
|
Seriously, I will buy Amazon Neo in a heartbeat. Great design, beautiful color choices.
|
I loved season 1, so I can barely wait.
|
Syringes as collectible device? Drug addicts are going to love this :P
|
Damn this is sick as hell! It's kinda hard to watch Kamen Rider when it's this bloody but I'm gonna see season 2 when this comes out.
|
Shut up and take my money...now.
EDIT: So wait....Iyu is Sigma. Does that mean the Sigma suit is returning? Yes please :D |

You know, at first I wasn't a fan of these neo Rider designs because they were such a big departure from the Amazon aesthetic, but then I remembered...Amazons was always basically just using Amazon as a promotional clutch--it never had anything to do with Amazon itself. So now that it's proven itself able to stand on its own, maybe distancing themselves from that aesthetic and doing something more their own is actually probably the right call.
...so now I just aren't a fan of them because I don't like how they look. 'Tis a simpler, purer reason. Show should be good regardless so it doesn't really matter anyway. |
I just realized that Amazon Neo is supposed to be the Amazon Alpha body type with armor. Not Jin of course, but the design is the same!
You can see the top fin, the little lantern on his forehead as well as the sculpted mouth poking out underneath the metal. The reason why the head is shaped differently is because all the metal parts form a helmet. And his eyes aren't actually real eyes, they’re goggles. Underneath them are the same bug eyes Alpha has, I'm sure of it. That’s also the reason why Neo's eyes have no honeycomb pattern but lines instead. So yeah it seems like this seasons Amazons are cyborgs. They're the same biological beings as last time, but with the new driver they get mechanical implants it seems. That’s actually kinda cool considering it mixes Amazon with classic Rider lore. They’re still biological Riders like Amazon, but now also cyborgs like most other Showa Riders. And I feel incredibly stupid for not noticing this sooner considering Omega is also the same suit with metal parts, so it would make sense that this seasons other main Rider has a new version of Alpha’s suit. |
Looks like there's a lot of practical gore FX this season - FANGO.
|
I wonder if there be another evil amazon like sigma with a black color suit. I think that be really great just like how they did sigma in season 1.
|
That trailer was cool. I thought Amazons was great so I'm looking forward to this!
The picture of the belt worries me a bit. I hope there isn't any plugging things into the Driver to make it do stuff. I don't need that shit in a show like this. |

But that's about it really, don't expect something like Eyecons or Gashats out of this, they won't even release the belt at retail much less collectable trinkets. And the basic sounds should be the same style as the season one stuff. |

The belt seems to include parts to make Sigma's Driver? At least that's what I'm getting from the images. Reeeally need to finish learning japanese. |
